Does melatonin or amaxacilin cause mouth sores?

Posted on March 5, 2010 by admin

I started it last tuesday and now i have lots of open sores in my mouth. im also on amoxacilin.

Aphthous ulcers ("canker sores") are common and the etiology is unknown, probably minor trauma. Often, they respond well to extra B12 vitamin, folate and vitamin C. The B12 is taken by dissolving the tablet under the tongue, not swallowing whole.

    It could be an allergy or it could be that the melatonin and amoxicillin are interacting with each other or it could be that the sores are caused by the varicella-zoster virus (Chicken-pox) that typically remains dormant but can flare up with sores due to colds or flu.
